Walk in Portsmouth High Street on a Thursday Market day

[@garymane1843]

My old city, love Portsmouth, used to live in Portsmouth during 1980s, lots changed, thanks for sharing

[@DezyRoolz4858]

Thanks for watching.

[@DezyRoolz4858]

I love it when people watch videos of our beloved Pompey.

[@punkoso4168]

yeah, a lot has changed but for the better

[@MrRQBQ]

I left school in 1959 and worked for a short while in a furniture shop called Traceys in Charlotte Street. It was located on the corner where the Galaxy phone shop is now. So long ago that it was even before the Tricorn Centre was built.

Great video

[@davebloke829]

I remember when that part of Pompey was the place to be, it used to be heaving, it used to have some great shops and market too!

[@MAZ732]

It’s clean and it looks like an English Town! Stunningly beautiful place. 👏👏

its a shithole but a nice shithole

[@paulcullen814]

The old Debenhams store which has now closed used to be a department store called Allders. Before that it was a department store called Landports. The district in Portsmouth where the city centre shops are is called Landport, which is where the store got its name from. The store opposite Wilko's with the yellow shutters over the windows was a well known local landmark store called 'U-Need-Us'. It was a fancy dress/party/joke shop that sadly closed in 2019 after being open for nearly 96 years.

My old stomping ground. Thanks for sharing. A good honest hand held video with no special effects. 🖖

[@kernowarty]

Last time I was in the centre of Portsmouth was 20 years ago and it does not seem to have changed much.

[@Blasian-Couple]

beautiful

[@paulwalker359]

Nice, i used to live in Gosport, and would cycle to commercial road every weekend with my best mate P Windybank to visit HMV. Great memories.

[@DezHampshire8505]

Hope you visit Gosport again.👍

[@saullazenby5266]

Great video 👍 what a dump tho

[@002lisamarie]

It doesn't look like a dump on here. Have you been ?

[@DhealthyLife]

Portsmouth is my city.❤.

[@Bodneyblue]

Been over 16 years since I last walked through Commercial Road...possibly closer to 18...looks familiar...but not. Was born in Portsmouth..and lived within half mile of Commercial Road at one point.

[@PieAndChips]

I grew up in Somerstown, a 5 minute walk into Comical Road.

[@MrRQBQ]

That busker needs to retire. Bloody hell what a racket.

[@Zuhairah-]

Literally in that vid bruh

[@tillysanders2593]

It hasn't changed much in 30 years. If anything it looks even more run down. Suppose Gunwharf took business away.

[@002lisamarie]

Is it a nice place to live ?

[@alanbarangaming7834]

my old town now o am in poland

[@002lisamarie]

[@meyounature4975]

We left not too long ago its like leaving your entire life there

[@Skibiditoiletrizzsigma]

ive been there before

[@jesuscora]

Very good video. Try not to hum when shooting videos, though. 😊

[@DezHampshire8505]

Thanks for the comments.That was one of my first videos,was learning then,been stomping out the humming since then.😁.

[@demedemertdemert5955]

If Portsmouth is island then how do people go out of it

[@leoneomike]

It has 3 bridges connecting it to the mainland. The middle bridge is practically all concrete so its more or less attached.

[@demedemertdemert5955]

@@leoneomike oh okay

[@gdj6298]

The bit of water in between is called Portcreek. With a lot of effort and a strong wind you could almost spit across it. So TECHNICALLY an island but not exactly an ocean away .... :-)

[@rant3653]

Don’t see many brown folks in Portsmouth,

[@leoneomike]

Yeah it's pretty much a white British majority. There are a number of Asian students who study/stay and a decent percentage of White Europeans.

[@rant3653]

@@leoneomike thanks Mike, good to know. London become way too multicultural is doing my head in. Was thinking moving out .

@@teamehpchannel9614 does the town centre feel safe during the day. Or does it get rowdy.

Great vid but drop that terrible background tune

[@jamiew6438]

Meh. Reminds me of Watford High Street combined with a bit of Worthing .

[@002lisamarie]

Watford High Street is thriving.
